“Tom has an infectious charm and sincerity that makes you root for him in every character he plays,” adds Scanlon. “[And] there is no one funnier than Julia. [S]he also brings a warmth and loving side to her character.”

“Octavia can do it all,” says Rae. “We’re especially excited about the depth as well as humor that she brings to her character.”

“Onward” is slated to hit theaters on March 6, 2020.
